Chromabba ranks among the most popular entries in the aescripts library. Its 1.3.0 release ported the plugin from CUDA to WebGPU and added support for macOS, Windows, DaVinci Resolve, and Premiere Pro.
Chromabba is a realistic chromatic aberration plugin from Towards Inner Momentum, built to run in After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Nuke, and other OFX hosts. Rather than only shifting RGB channels, it simulates how light actually bends around edges. Alongside chromatic aberration, it can also produce a liquid glass distortion effect.
You can control strength, direction, edge attraction, and more. A Direction parameter offers Both, Inward, and Outward modes to set how the displacement moves. The plugin is GPU-accelerated via WebGPU, and when a frame size exceeds your GPU limits it shows an on-frame warning and keeps the image visible instead of crashing the host.
Compatibility spans After Effects 2026 through 2022, DaVinci Resolve 21 through 18, Nuke/NukeX 16.0 through 13.0, and Premiere Pro 2026 through 2022. Chromabba ranks among the most popular entries in the aescripts library.
Chromabba is best for adding realistic chromatic aberration and liquid glass distortion across After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Nuke, and other OFX hosts.
Chromabba is completely free to download and use.
Chromabba works in After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Nuke, and other OFX hosts. Listed compatibility covers After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022; DaVinci Resolve 21, 20, 19, and 18; Nuke/NukeX 16.0, 15.0, 14.0, 13.2, 13.1, and 13.0; and Premiere Pro 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022. Across these hosts it applies the same chromatic aberration and liquid glass distortion effect.
Chromabba is GPU-accelerated via WebGPU, so it relies on your graphics hardware to process the effect. On Windows it defaults to Direct3D 12 and falls back to Vulkan if D3D12 is unavailable, and the CHROMABBA_GPU_BACKEND environment variable lets you force the backend. If a frame size exceeds your GPU limits, commonly around 8192px on some systems, Chromabba shows a clear on-frame warning and keeps the image visible instead of crashing the host.
Chromabba is listed as free in this catalog. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page on aescripts for the current details and any conditions on use. The plugin is developed by Towards Inner Momentum, and a demo video is available if you want to see more before downloading. Its most recent version listed here is 1.3.5, released April 1, 2026.
Chromabba 1.3.5, released April 1, 2026, improved stability on very large comps and sequences in After Effects and Premiere Pro, including many 8K and larger scenarios. If a frame size exceeds your GPU limits, commonly around 8192px on some systems, it now shows a clear on-frame warning instead of crashing the host, and fallback behavior for unsupported frame sizes was improved so the image stays visible with a warning overlay.
